After the meeting with the lecturer was over, Vienna felt that God had given her the strength to deal with this difficult situation. He felt that his closeness to God deepened every time he sought guidance in prayer.
Vienna decided to spend some time alone in the campus mosque. Inside the quiet and peaceful mosque, he reflected on this experience. He felt that this test was part of his spiritual journey that had helped him to draw closer to God.
Sitting cross-legged on the prayer mat with his eyes closed, Vienna began his prayer in a soft voice. "O Allah, I thank You for the courage You gave us in the face of difficult situations. Thank You for always listening to my prayers and giving me the strength to speak with an open heart. I know that this test is part of Your greater plan, and I believe that You will guide my steps on this journey."
For a while, he continued to ponder and pray. He felt that God was always present at every step, giving him the strength to stay strong on this journey. In the solemn silence of the mosque, he felt a deepening closeness to God.
At the same time, Vienna feels that this journey has helped reflect on its religious values and the importance of tolerance and respect for differences in their lives. He knew that God would always be with him, giving him the guidance and strength he needed to face any challenges that might arise in the course of his life.
Although there was no major change in the controversial lecturer's views, Vienna and her friends felt that they had done their best to reach a common understanding. They feel that they have undergone this test of faith wisely and courageously faced it.
After leaving the campus and walking towards his dorm, Vienna contemplated the meeting. He knew that the struggle to keep his religious beliefs would continue, but he also knew that God was always by his side, giving him strength and wisdom in the face of every test of life.
When he arrived at the dormitory, his friends gathered in his room. They sat together, pondering on what they had experienced today. One of Vienna's friends, Maya, spoke with appreciation, "I am proud to be part of this group. We have shown the lecturer that our beliefs are something that is very important to us, and we do it with respect."
Another friend, Rizky, added, "And we have also shown ourselves that we can face this challenge with our heads held high. I believe that God will always be with us on this journey."
Vienna smiled, feeling grateful to have friends who supported her in this struggle. "We did the best we could today. Importantly, we never forget our values and remain respectful of differences. It's part of our spiritual journey."
They all nodded in agreement, and their moods became lighter. Although they know that challenges may always be present in life, they have confidence that God will always give them the strength to face them. In the light of the soft lights of the room, they contemplate their spiritual journey which has brought them closer to God and to each other.
The campus park located in the middle of the college buildings is a beautiful place. Shady trees are towering and densely leafed, creating shadows that dance over rocky ground. A breeze of cool breeze touched their faces, giving a pleasant feeling of freshness. Vienna and Maya sit on soft green grass, taking off their sandals to feel a comfortable touch of nature under their feet.
As the sun slowly ducked in the western horizon, the twilight sky was filled with warm orange and red colors. The vanishing sunlight provides a calm and peaceful atmosphere. They are surrounded by their diverse campus friends, from a variety of backgrounds and beliefs. They all gather in this park to celebrate the friendship, togetherness, and diversity that exists between them.
Vienna and Maya sit cross-legged near a large tree that provides cool shade. Vienna stared at the discolored sky with eyes filled with longing and gratitude. He reflected on his life journey while at this college. When he first arrived here, he felt anxious and afraid of how his faith would be tested in a different environment. But as time went on, he realized that those challenges were also part of his growth.
Maya, her classmate, looked at Vienna with a gentle smile. "Vienna, what are you thinking?"
Vienna smile. "I'm just reflecting on everything that's happened during this college period. The challenges, the friendships I built, and of course, our faith."
Vienna agreed. "That's fine. After all, God is always with us, wherever we are."
Their friends who were sitting around started to join in the conversation. They talk about their experiences during college, both fun and challenging. They also shared stories of how they learned from each other and felt the importance of diversity in life.
As the night drew near, they decided to pray together in the garden. They form a circle, clasping each other's hands, and feeling their closeness to each other and to God. The sound of the Adhan from the campus mosque not too far away was beautifully heard, reminding them to contemplate the greatness of God and how fortunate they were to be here, together, together, under the sky that shines the stars.
The twilight had completely arrived, and the sunlight propagating in the western horizon was beginning to dim. The campus garden is increasingly peaceful with shady trees that propagate soft shadows on rocky soil. Vienna and her friends gathered around a circle they beautifully shaped on the green grass. The tranquil atmosphere of the garden creates the perfect atmosphere for shared prayer.
Vienna sits in the middle of a circle, among her diverse friends. He felt a feeling of closeness to them and to God so strong. His eyes looked at the sky which still looked a little orange from the sunset. He knew that this moment was the time to celebrate and be grateful for everything they had experienced during college.
Maya, who was sitting next to Vienna, smiled at him excitedly. "Vienna, we can start a prayer together now."
Vienna nodded and raised her hand in prayer. His friends also followed his movements, and they formed a tight circle. They feel closeness to each other when facing God in prayer.
"O Allah," Vienna began with a solemn voice, "we thank You for all Your guidance You have given us during this lecture. We know that without Your guidance, we will not be able to overcome all the challenges and obstacles we have faced."
The atmosphere around them was so calm, and only the soft sound of the wind whispering among the leaves was heard. Street lights began to illuminate the garden, creating a more magical atmosphere.
Vienna continued, "We are grateful for the friends you have bestowed on us. They are true friends who always support us on our journey, and we pray that You always keep this friendship."
The surrounding friends nodded in agreement, and some of them delivered their own prayers inwardly. They felt the presence of God so close in this prayer.
Vienna continued, "O Allah, we are also grateful for the diversity You have created between us. We know that diversity is one sign of Your greatness, and we pray that we can always live in harmony and mutual respect."
This prayer became more solemn, and Vienna felt tears of happiness dripping from her eyes. He knows that God always listens to their prayers, even in the midst of the heavy campus rush.
After a while, the prayer was over. They all felt closer to each other and to God. They let go of the grasp of their hands and sat in silence that permeated their hearts.
Viennese friends smiled and hugged each other. They feel a deeper closeness, not only as college friends, but also as friends who share the same spiritual values. The atmosphere of the garden grew calmer, and stars began to appear in the night sky. This moment is a reminder to them that in silence and prayer, they can always feel closeness to God.
